With the Nextcloud Summit on June 5th in Munich, Germany, Nextcloud provides policymakers and the public sector with the opportunity to explore digital sovereignty with key experts and industry leaders. Building secure, sovereign, and transparent digital environments will be at the heart of this meet-up, which will also feature workshops, real-life examples, and unique networking opportunities.
